Designer, Synthographer, and AI Artist

Amanda has been intrigued by the intersection of art and technology for as long as home computers have been around. After growing up crafting scenes in Bryce 3D and playing around with Photoshop in art class, she inevitably pursued graphic design as her career. Almost 20 years later, she’s still in love with design and has developed a particular specialty in branding. Bringing a client’s vision and story to life through branding is what lights her up.

With the advent of artificial intelligence platforms and AI-generated art, she’s discovered a new way of bringing stories to life. Wielding precise prompt language and judicious Photoshop editing, she’s able to realize art pieces that were beyond her capabilities as an illustrator before. Her interest in fantasy, mythology, books and symbolism has found a new outlet. Her personal style is to depict the magical and fictional in a photorealistic way, making the unreal appear real.

These days she resides in Round Rock, TX with her husband and daughter. She’s an avid traveler, amateur chef and can often be found with her nose in a book. She has a particular fondness for dragons.
